Good Points
Fit a lot of shopping in. Very cheap to run.
Bad Points
Rusts a lot and engine has had new air sensor, valves and needed a re-bore at 30,000 miles even with frequent oil changes.
General Comments
The Ford Fiesta XR2i is a very unreliable car with major mechanical problems. It burns more oil than any other car I have had. Parts are very cheap but are also very unreliable-- you get what you pay for. A cheap car in every respect. Handling is OK for a 1990's car but is simply not up to todays standards of safety or handling.
